Deleted my comment. It was rude.

this bill is pointless and useless.  Simply trying to get the issue out there, but it's doing it in a blindly stupid way.  Guns simply need better regulation.  Let people have all the guns they want, but put reasonable tests behind it.  A written test, a practical test, a licence, and retesting from time to time.  Much like we do with cars.   the 2nd says "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."  You need to know who has the guns so if we need to call on these people to be part of a militia to defend the country from invaders. (it was written in case the English came back to mess us up.)  And you want them to be not too retarded to use the gun.  this would prevent any kind of impulse buying of guns, better reflect the responsibility of owning a tool for killing, and would better serve the purpose of the 2nd amendment.   This doesn't seem unreasonable to me, as cars are way more important to the country as a whole than guns are.  No really, think about that if all the guns went away our economy would chug along just fine, maybe a minor hit because we spend SO much on firearms.  If cars went away, the country would be boned as nobody could get to work.  Testing and licencing does not take away a person's right to own a gun.  but it does make sure they are responsible enough to be able to properly operate one. you know... in case we get invaded and we need a militia.

Personally anything that encourages brick and mortar store sales I am all for, but after a lot of reading and thought, this is silly. I dont care how much money I save, I buy almost nothing online. I don't believe in purchasing from places that dont collect sales tax ( though that seems to be going by the wayside ) I think we get more out of our economy through physical stores. This bottom dollar society contributes a lot to the walmart mentality. But I do that by choice. Forcing people to do that..... it's wrong.
